Note from Honduras Resists: In the past several weeks a number of events have occurred pointing to a deepening political crises in the country and serious conflicts among the security forces, military and political rulers. The head of the Honduran National Police Force, Juan Carlos Bonilla has been one of the figures at the center of the storm and now has issued threats against LIBRE and its activists. Below is a message from the Political Organization Los Necios.

March 4, 2010

Chief Police Juan Carlos Bonilla, better known as “El
Tigre Bonilla” gave on Thursday last week a press conference saying that
sectors involved in LIBRE Party have started a dirty campaign against National
Security, by denouncing his crimes. In the link below his declaration:

He
said he has already identified the groups that are doing this, and it
is known he is referring to the Political Organization Los Necios
(OPLN). Los
Necios have openly and publicly denounce his crimes through all web site
resources, given all the criminal linkages and assassinations during
this period.
The Police has not done anything even though there are videos showing
paramilitary
personal killing with political purposes. Also, Gilberto Ríos, General
Secretary of Los
Necios, who is also candidate for congress, sent “El Tigre Bonilla” a
letter in
response to these false accusations. You can read it in the link below.

As we all known Tigre Bonilla is recognized for being
involved with the death squads in the 80s and for his servility to the private enterprises. The arrival of El
Tigre has not reduced the violence rate, instead the decision to militarize to
give security has just brought more repression and more corruption by the
oligarchy .

Here I send you the links of the videos that the OPLN
made in denounce for the situation of Security in Honduras
